Confused Sally!

A confused girl with curly hair,
Almost sure, but never quite there.

Somewhat certain, but mostly uncertain;
She took six hours to buy a curtain!
One day I know she went to get some tea;
Then debated for hours and ordered coffee!

She then decided to go to college,
And gain some additional extra knowledge.
She thought it would help her decide,
And generally get all her loose ends tied!
She had it almost all thought out,
Only the course was in a bit of a doubt,
She couldn't decide whether take this subject or that,
Physics or chemistry, humanities or math!
So you see, she is still quite the same,
The only thing she is sure of, is her name!

The little girl with the pain in the back

There was a little girl called Jane,
Who was troubled with a big back pain,
When asked, she said "Its not that bad!"
When asked, she tried not to look very sad!
But the pain showed through in her eyes,
And sneaked out in front of all her lies!

One day she could bear it no more,
So she went past the hospital door,
The doctor there saw her and said,
"Your back is really swollen and red,
Change your diet to water and bread,
So that you will lose some weight,
Then maybe your pain wont be so great!"

Jane looked the doctor up and down,
And turned her smile into a frown,
And then told the doctor to stuff his head,
With the same old moldy water and bread,
She rather liked her back pain,
By losing it, there was no gain,
And if she had to live on water and bread,
She would rather be better off dead!

The sun and me

It would be such lovely fun,
If I could capture the sun!

I could keep it in my pocket,
Or wear it like a shiny locket!

And take it to my friends homes,
And burn holes in their garden gnomes!

As of little kids who burn little ants,
I would take care to sizzle their pants!

At night I would hide it in the pool
Then, I will never have to go to school!

Of course, I wont hog it all,
It can shine a little around night fall!

And when the king wants it for crops,
I would lend it out for a few acid drops!
